I'm relatively new here and I just got my cards today...and on to stickers now. I'm completely in love with MOO and it's the greatest service (and people) I've come across so far. If you want, I can translate into Russian - I do have a degree in linguistics after all :D Cheers, Y Hi! I’m relatively new here and I just got my cards today…and on to stickers now.

But. It doesn't seem to work for me... I'm on a MacBookPro, Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.0.0.7. When I click on another language option, I get taken to the new URL - http://it.moo.com - but the language hasn't changed. Sorry if this isn't the right place to tell you, but, whatever.

I already left a comment a few days ago about the availability of Italian, but wanted to add my 2c also here. Same as in French (as I get from Stephanie's comment above) the Italian message is still a bit stiffer than the English. An example is the closing sentence in the post above. To keep to informal tone, you could use something like: "Nel frattempo, benvenuto! Prenditi una sedia, accomodati e fa' come fossi a casa tua." Cool stuff!

Too much "nous", not enough "on". The slightly 'chatty' style is lost, which is a shame, and it feels a tad stiff. Other than that, there are no mistakes, which is already great!
